Judge Humplircys today signed tlio
following order In the case of M. V,
McChcsncy & Sons vs. Kona Sugar
Company and First American Saving
& Trust Company:
"It appearing to the court that tho
receiver in tho above entitled cause has
been paid all sums duo to him as such,
and has been given a bond In the sum
of 15000, which said bond Is satlsfae
tory to said receiver, It Is ordered that
the receiver, H. V. Wundcnberg, ap

titled cause be and he Is hereby dls
charged, relieved from alt further re
sponstblllty, and the sureties upon his
bond as such receiver are hereby re

The actual expenses paid out and In
eurred by tho receiver, together with
his $1000 fee, wero reimbursed to hlni

of the Kona Sugar Co. For accrued
wages of labor on the plantation to
date of petition for tho receiver's dis
charge and other possible charges
u&alnst the receivership the bond of
$5000 was required by the court to be
furnished.
The course Is now clear for any prac

a basts of prospective profit to tho
fctnckholders. It Is an open secret that
Uishop & Co., bankers, have had money
available In San Francisco to place the
plantation upon a workable footing,
provided they ascertained that the
property was capable of profitable de

that firm, on which ho left town yester

be regarded as of greatest significance
to all concerned.

Henry Victor Morgan ncknow leges
having received a certified copy of the
complaint for dhorce filed by his wife,
Chrlstlno Morgan, which was sent to
him In California by order, of tho Court.
He replies at length to her allegations.
Her charges that during their entire
married life, and especially thrco years
prior to tho beginning of the divorce
suit, tho defendant was of sufficient
ability to provldo maintenance for the
plaintiff but neglected nnd refused to
do so, though earning on an average.
three dollars a day as a wood-worker
and carriage-builder, he declares to be
false In certain particulars. When he
married Mrs. Morgan ho was engaged
as pastor of the First Christian
Church, Alameda, California, and bad
been In tho Christian ministry for four
lears preceding their marriage.
Mr. Morgan alleges that during the
entlro period of their married life he
was in poor health, suffering Intensely
from violent headaches. In Septem
ber, 189S, his wife nnd himself accept
ed an Invitation from Mrs. Morgan's
rtrents to visit them In Honolulu and
remain until his. health was restored.
On arrival he immediately began
preaching for tho church at Ewa plan
tation and part of the time nt Pearl
City. In January, 1899, ho believes,
his wife's father, 11. J. Rhodes, and
himself teased six acres of land In Ma-
noa. For somo months he worked on
the land with his fathcr-ln-law, comln
ulng to preach on Sundays at tho
places already mentioned. It was not
until May, 1900, that ho returned to
work at his trade of carriage building
for tho Honolulu Stockyards Company.
Op the 14th of Juno following he
was taken down with typhoid fever
and attended by Dr. W. E. Taylo. Aft
er Ills Blow recovery ho went back to
his trade, but was not In constant em
ployment until January, 1901. Other
Illness ensued from which he obtained
no relief until leaving Honolulu In Ju
ly, 1901. In the meantime he had b
a homo for himself In Manoa valley,
going In debt for the material to Low

to prolde a home for them. All the
money earned by him during this tlmo
was spentr afty providing the neces
saries of life. In paying off debt. Ho
was also paying Professor Cook for
'music lessons to Mrs. Morgan.
Defendant has no rcmembranco of
the number of dresses provided for
Mis. Morgan, but has no recollection
of clothing bought for her by her par
ents. During tho three months preced
ing his departure from Honolulu In
July, 1901, his maladies Increased to
such an extent that Mrs. Morgan told
111 in imp feared for Mb sanity. It wna
not until this tlmo that he noticed his
wife had grown dissatisfied. She beg
ged him to lcavo for tuo Coast In
search of restoration, while Dr. Taylor
advised htm to consult an oculist, as
he believed tho headaches and rtls-
turbed mental condition might be at
tributed to nye disorder. -
Mrs. Morgan's sworn assertion that
slnco July, 1901, ho had contributed
but $20 to the biipport of herself and
their children, his neglect compelling
ner to iivo on the charity of her par
ents, he says Is not true. He had left
her $20 In cash and accounts duo him,
which ho specifies, amounting to $40
and made payablo to Mrs. Morgan. Re
sides, he arranged beforo leaving for
credit at a grocery store, under which
he had a bill for $21.90 for groceries
purchased by Mrs. Morgan. Moreover,
lie gent her a postnfflcn money ordei
for $20.
Tho first letter he received from his
wife after leaving Honolulu was writ
ten August 19, 1901. In this letter she
used tho following languago:
lpu say you know you aro not my
ideal, that Is true; you are far from
It: but ono tlmo I thought you were,
pud It dawned upon mo very slowly
you wore not. You say again I do not

but told him she would bring suit tor

show the Judge thatjio had not wllfut

that, according to her ownt lexers, his
wife wants a divorce for a rcftson (lit
ferent from that mentioned In her com
plaint. Therefore he prays;

To Play the Governor Off
Some Interesting

asked somcono on the channel wharf
Just before noon today, "Tho vessel
was scheduled to sail at 11 o clock and
she's still here."
"I guess they're waiting for Judge
Hear," volunteered a rash youth v!io
believes everything ho reads In tho
morning paper. Then ho blushed nnd
moved to tho other end of the whaif
as he perceived numerous smiles
beaming In his direction.
Notwithstanding the statements nt
tho Advertiser, among those who ulJ
not depurt for San Francisco In tuo
Hlorru wero Juogo Humphreys and
J ml go Gear.
A largo crowd nilcd the channel
wharf an hour beforo tho steamer was
tupposcd to leave the dock. The Ter
rltorlal band was on hand.to play Gov
crnor L'olo off nnd tho crowd was un
usually large on account of tho groat
number anxious to boo Mr. Dolo go,
Smi.o little curiosity was cxcllod
eniong tho Australian passengers In
the Klerra when they learned that tho
Governor of Hawaii was to bo a fellow
passenger to San Francisco
p Klgllsh tourist and his wife wero
discussing tho matter. "The Governor
nt llio Sandwich Islands Is going up
with us," said tho husband.
"Vnu don't Bay," said his wife. 'Is
he yolng on to tho coronation with
tiiv?"
A Lreat proportion- of tho through
pasccngers In tho Sierra aro going lo
Kitglard to see tho coronation sights
ard they have an idea that everybody
else Is going there, too.
As ench passenger mounted th.i
gangway to go aboard, the crowd -n
tho wharf craned their necks to bco
If ho or she was anybody of their ac
quaintance. Incidentally they were looking for
tho Governor, but he was a long tlmo
making his appearance.
Iirrln A. Thurston bounded up the
gangway. Just then Secretary Coopor
appeared on tlio dock.
"Hoy!" cried Cooper.
"Hoy! Thurston!" reiterated tha
Territorial Secretary.
Cooper nnally succeeded In cnlllas
Mr. Thurston down and handed him
thrco letters for Washington and a
lei.
Colonel and Mrs. "Tom" Fitch went
aboard covered with beautiful leis.
Dut tho Governor was nowhere In
tugiit.
"I don't believe the Governor's to.
Ing." said somebody.
Here ho conies now." wna tlm n
ply.
It ,as Just 11 o clock. Tho steamer
had blown her warning whistle. Tho
tall form of Governor Dole was observ
ed coming through the crowd toward
tno gangway.
Tho Governor was accompanied to
the foot of tho gangway by his wife.
There they said good-by, Mrs. Doio
handing her husband a bunch of vio
lets. Tho Governor was already gen
erously covered with lels of many dlf-
icreiu nowers.
Attornoy Gencfal E. P. Dole, Sccro
tary Howes, High Sheriff nrown and
otners wero present at tho foot of th
gangwny to bid Mr. Dole adieu.
On reaching tho deck of tho Sierra
Bomeono proposed "three cheers lor
Governor Dole."
The response was all that 'could bo
expected, the passengers on tho
steamer's deck Joining in the cheers
and band-clapping.
Tho Governor, romovlng his hat,
Dowea rignt ami lert.
"aood-by. all!" ho said. "I'll sco you
again."
The gangway waB then lowered, but
tho steamer did not move. It was al
most noon when tho Sierra got away
me quarantine omcers being busily en
gaged aboard In an examination of the
passengers.
In tho meanwhile the people on the
wharf cnrrled on a conversation with
those aboard, throwing lels and kisses
and wondering why tho vessel did not
move.
Tho band, which had delighted tho
crowd with appropriate airs on tho
wharf, embarked In tho tug Fearless
which, with all her gay colors flying,
was to escort the liner out ot the clian
net. Many men and women friends nf
tho departing, went aboard tho ti.er
also.
Just beforo noon, when tho doctors
had completed their examination of
the passengers, tho Fearless com
menced to pull tho Sierra around so
that her nose pointed (o tho channel.
Tho band In tho tug played "Aloha
Oo" nnd other selections. Tho band
boys wero located forward.
When tho bow of tho Sierra had
been swung toward tho sea, she start
ed her engines in no lazy manner and
tho Fearless had to hustle to turn
around and follow. Tho speedy 'and
powerful tug boon caught up with tho
big ship, however, so that tho music
of the band reached tho ears of tho
j Governor and tho rest of tho folks
l aboard.

AWAY!
Among the passengers who denartel I
fpr the Coast on the Sierra this noon '
was Mr. K. H. Taylor of E. H. Rollins
& Sous, the well-known bond brokers,
of Doston. Mr. Taylor, when seen (,n
tho gang-plank Just ns the steamer do-1
